diff -up isn't working which I was told at linuxquestions.org
Also there was a problem with geany or pdksh which I tested that day (public domain KornShell ~300KB ) that cutted everything behind the column 72 .

I thought about a long big text, but this would belong to a howto section .

Patches are applied with the

Code:

patch ##--help

command

As far as I can see it : `patch` is part of the devx_PUP_VERSION.sfs

Roughly : place the patch file in the dir of the origfile , do a

Code:

cd /usr/local/petget

and a

Code:

cp ORIGFILE ORIGFILE.orig

unzip the patch.diff.p.patch.gz

Code:

gunzip diff-uaNd-check_deps.sh.patch.gz

have a look at it

Code:

geany diff-uaNd-check_deps.sh.patch &

and

Code:

patch < diff-uaNd-check_deps.sh.patch

The diff command seems to work on shellscripts better with

Code:

diff -U1 -aNd FILE

The patch should work flawlessly on 5.1.1 but may reject the main part on older puppies because there had been some changes [ some medium-little handwork needed ]
I had not put any changelog remarks in the head part of the file .
